Memorial stone for the military and civilian victims and the civilian workers of the First World War. The monument was placed in 2019.

Later, the names of the victims of the Second World War were added to the same monument.

"We fell for you for the Fatherland / There lie their corpses like seeds in the sand / Hope for the harvest, O Flandersland" it says and also a variation on the well-known "AVV-VVK"; here "AVV-VVC"; "Flanders for Christ" instead of "Christ"...

Next to the monument is an information board about the Tree of Freedom, the old one from 1919 and the young one, from 2019.
